Year of Prosperity for the Whole Coun-
try, but Especially for the South
BALTIMORE, MD, Aug. 90.-The Manu-
facturers' Record of this week contains
about five pages Of special reports from
the south as to crops and the condition Of
business. The corn crop of the south is
unprecedentedlv large, exceeding the yield
OF 1886 by over 50,000,0 900 bushels, the
yield of 1885 by 100000 bushels and
the yield of 1884 by 100,000,000 bushels.
The south will this year be nearly self
supporting in the matter of corn, and
many million dollars heretofore gone
west for corn, will this season be saved to
southern farmers.
While the recent unfavorable weather
has damaged to some extent the cotton
prospects which 8 month ago
promised so large yield the crop will
still be large one.
The advanced prices for tobacco will,
it is elaine d ,Counter-bslance to the farmer
decrease in the yield due mainly to
the decreased acreage.
Other crops have with few exceptions
been very good and it is said that the
farmers Will enjoy greater prosperity
than for many seasons. Business pros
poets are reported brighter than ever
before and one correspondent pre-
diets that this will be noted as debt
paving wear.
